Taran:[attempts to sneak up on Mist]~
Mistaya: *smirks slightly, a special aura reaching her senses, but keeps her main focus on the garden, humming innocently*
Taran: [thinks he is doing good satying hidden and moving silently, pauses for a moment before wrapping his arms tight around her] Mist~ [kisses her gently]
Mistaya: *the instant his arms are around her, a soft purr rumbles in her chest* My love <3 *brushes a hand against his cheek, leaving a streak of dirt and giggles, trying to wipe it off but making it worse*
Taran: [laughs softly, carefully cuddling her close, feeling her effort to clean the dirt off] It feels good. <3 How are you, my sweet?
Mistaya: ^.^ I'm getting better with every passing moment. *brushes her hands against each other to get the dirt off, pecking a kiss to Taran's chin* Are you enjoying this lovely day?
Taran: That's wonderful news ^_^ [gently steals a kiss from her lips] I have been loving it. It's perfect now that I have you~
Mistaya: *tail flicking happily, she gives his arm an excited tug* Do you like the garden? I'm trying to grow it without magic, but... *she leaned down, brushing her hand against a leaf of a tomato plant, watching it perk up, the blossoms drying and now sporting small berry-like growths* It's so tempting. ^^
Taran: [looks the garden over carefully, his expression filling with a gentle adoration and lighting up more, small tail flicking] It's beautiful. [chuckles softly, running a hand through her hair] Maybe you could use just a little? To ease the urge and help them along?
Mistaya: *presses her head against his hand, ears flicking happily. Looking over the garden, she smiles almost mischievously, leaning down to the plant she had touched moments ago. The plant bursts to life, the tomatoes growing rapidly and are quickly ripe. Licking her lips, she plucks off two, handing one to Taran* :3 Good?
Taran: [grins, seeing what she did. Eagerly takes a bite of the tomato] It's very good... but I think that is cheating a bit.
Mistaya: *pokes at Taran's nose with a juice covered finger after taking a bite of the fruit* I only helped a little, like you said to. ^^ That was just one plant. Besides... now I have something to put in dinner tonight. Enough for both of us if you'll stay.
Taran: Of course I will stay, I've just gotten you back. [ear flicks at nose being poked, kisses her finger, winks] and I love your cooking almost as much as I love you.
Mistaya: *grins up happily at her mate* Wonderful. I haven't been able to fish recently, so it's pretty much just plant life for the night. You don't mind, right? *winks playfully, knowing he prefers plants over fish, or any animal*
Taran: That sounds wonderful to me. heart I can't wait. [almost too distracted by want to cuddle and hold her more than to realize how hungry he is, stomach growls quietly]
Mistaya: *leans against Taran, nuzzling against his neck, giggling softly when his stomach voices its opinion. Stealing a kiss of her own, she starts to the house* There should be a few good veggies in my garden somewhere... You can pick what you like and bring it on in. <3 *heads in to get the table ready*
Taran: [silly grin, very much in love with his mate] Thank you. [begins to look around, collecting a few more tomatoes, a small onion, and some other good veggies. Mist's garden was very happy and healthy, producing a good amount of food]
Mistaya: *once in the house, she stands for a moment to reign in her feelings. Her heart fluttered within her chest from both happiness and fear. Happiness she liked, but fear... That was an echo of her past. Taking a deep breath, she pushed it away. Smiling again, she started humming and got a couple dishes and cups, more than ready to have the night to be with the man she loved*
Taran: [happy with his collection of vegetables and fruits, carries them inside] What do you think, my sweetie? Does this look good? [proudly holds them out to her]
Mistaya: *she picks up one vegetable, scrutinizes it closely, nods and sets it on the table. She picks up another veggie and does the same before giggling and taking a handful to ease his load* They look tasty, if I may say so. ^^; *pulls a knife from a small knife block and and starts chopping* There's some bread in the box over there if you'd like some with this.
Taran: [can't help but be happy so close to her, watching her chop the vegetables with much admiration] It looks very good.. I like watching, if that's alright.
Mistaya: *flicks her ears at his request, holding back her blush but allowing the smile to peek through* Of course it's all right. *chop-chop-chops, placing putting the portions onto their respective plates like a layered salad* Unless you'd like something else with this, dinner is served! :3
Taran: [looks at the salads] It looks delicious... [eager to eat and spend time with his mate, very happy] It looks good like this =3
Mistaya: *skips to her place, sitting before immediately standing* Oh, hold on! *she runs into the other room, and returns holding a thick candle that bears two wicks, both of them lit* I've always wanted to do this... with someone I loved. *a stray blush grazes her cheeks as she sets the candle at the center of the table, scurrying shyly to her spot again* ^///^ A candle lit dinner. It's not very dark out yet, but still.. it's nice.. I think..
Taran: [small blush at the candles] That's lovely... [looks into her eyes, gentle smile, finding the setup very romantic, sitting across from her at the table] I like this very much. [noticing how the soft glow reflects in her eyes]
Mistaya: *tail twitching, her gentle purr resumes* I'm glad you think so. *she sighed softly... He looked just as wonderful in the candle light as he did in the sun light. With his eyes locked to hers, the food came as a second thought, lazily and distractedly being forked into her mouth. By the time she was finally able to look away from him, she discovered her plate to be nearly empty. So... that's what it meant to get lost in a lover's eyes...*
Taran: [neither one of them had been paying much attention to their dinner, eating absently with locked eyes. He realized once again how beautiful his mate is, and how much he loves her... glancing down at his plate, he realizes it has been cleared] I love you, Mist...
Mistaya: *forcing down another bite, her eyes widened with excitement. She would never ever get tired of hearing him say that. She stood and made her way to his side, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him close for a sweet deep kiss, made all the sweeter by the fact that she could still sense the honesty of his words. That they meant just as much now as they had when the two taur had first fallen in love. Maybe, they even meant more. Repeating his statement seemed redundant, so she made her feeling known with more kisses and affections, enjoying every moment with him as much as she could*
Taran: [holds her as close as he possibly can, returning her affections with as much love as he has in his heart, longing to never move from having her in his arms. Ever since he had met Mistaya, he only seemed to love her more and more. And what a wonderful love it was.. He wanted nothing more than to spend all of his life happily with her]
Mistaya: *purring very loudly, she nuzzles her head to rest in the nook between Taran's neck and shoulder* I'm so lucky you found me, Taran. <3
Taran: [being careful of his antlers, he rests his head on top of hers] I think I am the lucky one..
Mistaya: *smiling, she runs a hand up and down the cervi's chest contemplatively. Maybe, she could ask now... She allowed herself to feel nervous as the question came out* Taran... Would you be willing... would you like to... move in together? It doesn't have to be here. It can be anyplace you choose. *she pulled her head up, her hand lifting to lay on his shoulder* I'm tired of not knowing when the next time I see you will be. I want to be able to wake up with you, and know that no matter where we go during the day, I'll be falling asleep with you again that night, to wake up with you again in the morning.
Taran: [very warm smile, can't help but feel pleasure at her touch, gently kissing her head] Yes, of course.. Let's stay right here... [murmured in a low voice, cuddling her as close as he possibly can without being too tight] I want that very much. [grins down at her] You already have your wonderful garden here, and we can always add on as we need it.. [gives her a lo~ng and deep kiss]
Mistaya: *such elation! Such joy! That she had been allowed to gain such happiness with this male... Fear had no place in her heart right now. It would surely try to return later, as always, but being in Taran's arms, feeling his love and knowning that a new chapter was starting in her life, what was there to fear? She held tight, lengthening the kiss as much as possible* I'm going to work extra hard with the garden tomorrow. I'll grow some food to sell at the market so we can afford something nice that we can pick out together. ^///^
Taran: [very excited to settle in with her, never thought he would feel so at home with anyone after his parents' passing] You're so amazing, Mist. I'll help you with anything you need me for. [settles himself down more comfortably, keeping her very close] I know we'll find something we like. [laughs softly, just so happy to be here] What shall we do for tonight?
Mistaya: *giving him a lighter kiss, she places her head back on his shoulder* Tonight... Why don't we celebrate somehow? I haven't celebrated anything in a long time though. How should we do it? Go out? Stay in? Both?
Taran: [thinking for a moment].. We could go out for a walk, maybe find a place to see the sunset? And we could always come back and cuddle more.. I wouldn't mind staying close to home. I think this is a very wonderful occasion.
Mistaya: *tail flicks her back lightly* That would be lovely. We can wait until the moon comes up even, and have a moonlit walk back. ...Back to our home. *feels all romantic now*
Taran: [almost reluctantly stands, taking one of her hands gently into his] Shall we go, my love? [knows just where to take her, will make it a very romantic occasion]
Mistaya: *purrs happily. Yes, she was his love~* We shall! *planning to clear the table when they got back, leads him eagerly outside* Now, where is the best place to watch the sunset...? *entwines her fingers with his as she thinks*
Taran: I know a very lovely place we could go, my love. [smiles, gently leads her in a direction he is quite familiar with]
Mistaya: *eyes light up in anticipation, walking along side the male* It sounds wonderful. Whenever I try to watch the sunset, the view is usually blocked by one object or another. *giggles happily. Letting her emotions out like this was unusual, but she wanted everything with Taran to be honest. She was determined that none of her feelings around him would be fake, unless she started to lose control one way or the other* Is it far?
Taran: [looks lovingly at her, made even happier by her joy] It is very close, actually. I watched the sunset alone from here once.. it was a perfect view, completely clear of any threats to block it. [keeps an easy stride so as not to tire her nor to miss the view]
Mistaya: That's good to hear. Then we should be able to watch the sunset as often as we want. Maybe even the sunrise? *tail flicks around in excitement, brushing against Taran every so often*
Taran: Sunrises are one of my favorite times of day, with everything waking up.. [carefully helps her past a low-hanging branch, small tail flicking]
Mistaya: *nods, ducking under the branch but not taking her eyes off the male* I don't know though. I think for a while, I'm going to be tempted just to lay in bed in the morning. X3
Taran: [small laugh, watching for the both of them] I don't think I would mind that too much. It will just be so comfortable with you.. [squeezes her hand gently] We're almost there, Mist.
Mistaya: *perks her ears up, grinning and giggling at his approval* Sounds like a plan. *eyes flick forward a moment, then back to her mate* Okay~
Taran: [ears twitch happily, leading her carefully through the woods] Keep your eyes on me~ [presents a nice hill with a drop-off overlooking a small spring, a view of a clear horizon where the sun will go]
Mistaya: *giggles* That will be easy enough to do~ *knowing that something Taran enjoyed was coming made it difficult to not peek a little though. With a small peep she closed her eyes as the horizon showed behind Taran's head. He wanted it to be a surprise apparently, and she didn't want to ruin it for him*
Taran: [situates himself next to her, wrapping one arm around her waist and holding her hand with the other, the sun was just starting to kiss the horizon, giving everything a beautiful orange, yellow, and pink glow with a reflection on the water] Ok.. you can open your eyes now.
Mistaya: *eyes opening, barely a breath escapes her as the literally breath-taking view captures her attention. Mouth drops open slightly to say something, but closes again quickly. What was there to say?* Oh, Taran... *clasps his hand tightly, grinning like a young girl*
Taran: [smiles at her reaction, proud of himself] I thought you might like it.. [gently squeezes her hand]
Mistaya: *nodding, she gives his hand a tug, urging him to sit with her as she lowers herself to the ground. It was all as if Taran himself had set up the view. The colors, the position of the sun, the sparkling water, the gentle, warm breeze* The stars will be lovely from here as well, won't they.

Taran let himself lower down next to her. "Yes... the stars will be lovely. but they will be nowhere as lovely as you." He smiles at her, snuggled as close to her as he can. He was very comfortable here with her. "It's so much more beautiful than before here with you..." smiling at her, he looked at the colors on the sunset.

Unable to resist, a warm blush floods Mistaya's face. "You are a shameless flatterer." she giggled. "Just shameless." She reached up to kiss his cheek, squeezing his hand as she watches the sun go down. "Who knew the sun could create so many colors?"

Taran grinned, caught in the act. "I'm just telling what I see." He glanced down at her face, seeing her blush. That just made him smile more, slight color in his cheeks at her closeness. Carefully resting his cheek on her hair, he subconsciously studied her scent as he watched the sky with her. "I never would have... It's so amazing. There are colors like you can't find anywhere else in the sunlight.." He smiles at her, almost constantly reminded of how much he adores her.

Mistaya sighed softly, a gentle purr rumbling in her chest. "I wonder how it makes all those colors. During the day, it's just bright. But at dusk and dawn... it's as if it were magic in the sky itself." She looked up at Taran, giggling. "What if it is magic. Probably a unitaur is out there on the horizon, making all these colors with its legendary powers."

Laughing softly with Mistaya, Taran thought got s moment. "They would truly be amazing, then, wouldn't they?" The setting was very romantic.. A beautiful view, his mate at his side.. he couldn't help but sigh happily at the comfortable wonderfulness of it all. He almost wished time would stop, so that they could stay this way forever.. but he knew it would keep moving on. And the future would be bright and beautiful, just like the sunrises and sunsets. He was blissful just to sit with her, watching the sun go down, and feeling that finding her was the best thing to ever happen in his life.
And, compared to his memories of the past, it was. As the moments slowly passed, he found himself watching how the sun played on her fur and her face and her skin more than it did the clouds. The stars gradually began to peek their way through the sunlight that made them vanish during the day. "I wonder what kind of magic the unitaur would have to use to make this..." it looked like every element mixed together to him.

Mistaya sighed contently. She was having much the same process as Taran, her eyes flicking more toward him, watching the colors change in his eyes more than the water below. How the shadows grew not from the trees, but the contours of Taran's face and muscles.
"I've heard their magic is the most powerful." She said, looking up at the emerging stars. "More powerful than cattaurs, more powerful than nagas." She shivered slightly at the awe inspiring thought. "Can you imagine!? What would it be like to meet one?"

Taran shook his head slightly, awe filling him as well. This place seemed to be full of magic. Instinctively, he put an arm around her waist. "It would be amazing, wouldn't it?" He chuckled softly at his thought. Mistaya could outshine any other taur in his eyes. Maybe they were most powerful, but that didn't necessarily mean that they were the most beautiful. But he had the feeling she would deny that.
Looking down at her, he saw the stars reflecting in her eyes. He smiled, his expression much like that of a lovesick puppy. He just couldn't resist her. It took more effort to pull his eyes back up to the sky than it had before. The stars twinkled with a determination to override the fading sunlight. Even the moon was beginning to battle the other light now. Night was falling... A first perfect night of living with his Mistaya. He wanted to fill her with all of his love...

Mistaya purred softly at the contact. Like Taran, she was caught up in the spell the place seemed to have cast. The very air seemed to give her the sense of calm and love, as if the world itself were in love like she was.
She turned her torso, her head leaning onto Taran's chest to listen to his heart beat, her hand raising to just in front of her nose to feel the pulsing muscle. With her heart and senses open, she was feeling nearly every bit of love he held for her. She closed her eyes, seeing in her mind's eye something more beautiful to her than even a unitaur created sunset.

Closing his eyes, Taran found himself listening to her purring and holding her as closely to him as possible. It felt so good to have her in his arms. Every time she touched him made his heart beat a little faster...
Gently, he ran his hand through Mistaya's hair. His ears flicked to the different sounds of the relaxing summer night. All of the different bugs, and the gentleness of her breathing. It could almost make him doze off to sleep.. But he was very alert. He would keep his love safe and close to him.

Mistaya was so content, sitting in the dimming sunlight with her beloved mate, that she didn't notice that soon enough the sun had vanished, leaving only a few golden rays to under light the clouds on the horizon.
When she opened her eyes at a cool breeze, she discovered the sky to be a deep dark purple and blue, a faint hint of gold as the only evidence that the sun had once been there. She smiled, lifting her head up and nuzzling her nose against Taran's collar bone. "Perhaps we should start back home now." She said, her purr thrumming at the mention of home. It was now their home... They weren't alone anymore.

Taran stood slowly, helping Mistaya back to her feet once he was stable. "It would probably be wise." Time seemed to go faster this time as he led her back to the house. Their home.. That fact warmed him from the inside, making him happy and having a sort of romantic feeling to it. The garden looked stunning and mysterious in the growing moonlight..

Mistaya held close to Taran's side, feeling comfortable and safe whenever he was near. Maybe now, she would truly have a home and wouldn't have to worry about her past anymore...
The sight of their home made her breath catch. It was the same ivy covered home she had been living in for some time now, but somehow it looked different, magical. A combination of the moonlight and her flowing emotions and the fact that Taran would now be staying there with her made the cozy home look like a castle. There were even a few fireflies hovering under a tree, the sounds of crickets creating a delightful aura around the house. "Home." She purred softly.

Taran smiled gently, leading Mistaya on a short stroll around their peaceful yard. "Our home," he added, feeling as if joy was going to bubble out of him. It was like nothing he had seen before.. the last time he had lived with someone was his parents in his childhood. Not even those memories could hinder his joy.. "Our beautiful home.." He kissed her gently, never seeming to be able to get enough of her kisses.

"Our home." She repeated to Taran, happily accepting the kisses he bestowed upon her. Each one seemed precious and unique. With a playful and romantic glint in her eyes, she took his hands and lead him to the house.
"We should... celebrate the moment some more... with something special... Something... to bond us more than kisses." She nibbled her lip from both excitement and nervousness. Would he understand?
